September 5: A few hours ago, anxious as heck, I sat in the parking lot at my local gym, waiting. On a whim I signed up for a membership last week with some friends and tonight was my first time visiting said gym. We were taking a 30 minute #HIIT class and while I was excited to try it, I was crippled with fear and anxiety. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been. My belly gets in the way of everything. I’m not bendy in any way. Like at all! And, I have hip issues. I hate being watched. My anxiety made me get to the gym 40 minutes early. Scared I’d be late. Scared to show up after the class started. Everyone looking at me. So I sat in the car waiting. Fretting. Beating myself up for letting myself “go” all these years. If I had stayed in shape, I wouldn’t be scared I’d throw up in front of everyone. I fretted until the very last minute before the class started. But knowing I had a friend waiting and counting on me made me move my butt out of that car. Inside the gym, I swipe my pass and I can
Took the kids to Canada’s Wonderland last weekend on a whim, and took advantage of our season passes and the 19-degree fall weather. The day started off rocky with my pre-teen son being in a moooooood. But by the end, everyone pulled through and we finished the day strong with a few rides and funnel cakes!
We're excited to go back and experience Halloween Haunt in a few weeks!
This coming week will be busy so I've pre-tracked some meals in my WW app to keep me on track. A few things I prepped for easy grab-and-go meals:
- I made some WW Vegetable Soup.
- Baked some portobello mushrooms for a meatless main dish.
- Made some hard-boiled eggs.
- Cooked some quinoa and chopped veggies to make some quick salads.
- Washed and chopped lettuce, cucumbers and peppers for easy meals and snacks.
What's on your to-do list this week?

Meal prepping is a big help! I am in the mood for soup this week too with the colder temps
